Things I need to work on, my failures: 1. I was pleasng myself more than God. I wasn't building up others to the Lord. 2. I didn't have the complete harmony with others or the attitude of Christ towards others. 3. I wasn't giving all the glory to God. 4. I wasn't happy or full of peace as I believed in God. I prayed that God will help me overflow with hope in Him through the Holy Spirit's power within me. 5. I didn't praise the Lord with all my heart. 6. God was speaking to me, but I didn't listen to Him. 7. I wasn't praying with all my heart or open heart. I didn't worship the Lord with all my heart. 8. I didn't have fellowship with God. 9. I was lazy in the work of the Lord, many things I didn't want to do. 10. I didn't have the fire burning of God's love and Holy Spirit within me. Wasn't obedient to God when He spoke to me. I didn't answer His call. 11. I didn't have the joy I once had. I didn't have the peace. I was unhappy. 12. I didn't spend enough time with the God or open up with God. I was very lonely and needed God's fellowship. 13. My love for the things of God, or for God, wasn't important to me anymore. I was starting to hate some things. 14. I read the Bible, but the words didn't seem to matter to me. 15. I didn't love God as I should because of my disobedience. 16. I didn't study God's word, I wasn't interested anymore.
These are what was lacking in my father's walk for a time, but he corrected them with God's help and the help of the Holy Spirit. My father also told me that he prayed for me every day, and I know he did. I miss his prayers now, but I know they are stored for me up in heaven! |
